Then why did the young man look like he didn't hear what he just said?
The elegant old man frowned.
…
"child……"
He raised his voice a little more.
"You kid..."
He couldn't help but reach out and grab the young man's sleeve.
Isn't this child's hearing so poor at such a young age?
If he hadn't thought that he and this young man had never met before, there wouldn't have been any entanglement. He would have doubted whether this young man was ignoring him on purpose...
…
The young man finally responded.
His sleeves moved suddenly.
The cuffs in the elegant old man's hands fell out.
…
The elegant old man didn't react until his hand was empty.
Why?
What just happened?
He didn't feel anything...
The cuffs in his hands disappeared.
…
However, the elegant old man's attention was quickly attracted by the young man's gaze.
He looked at the young man.
I was speechless for a while.
"……child."
The elegant old man finally straightened out the thoughts in his mind, "The rain is getting heavier. Do you want to go into the house to take shelter?"
…
The young man seemed a little surprised.
The look in his eyes made the elegant old man feel a little strange in his heart.
"……What's wrong?"
The old man couldn't help but touch his face.
Is there anything strange about his appearance?
…
"Wow~"
The sound of rain suddenly became louder.
The elegant old man was startled.
His expression suddenly became a little anxious.
"Oh, it's raining heavily."
"hurry up."
The elegant old man directly took the young man's arm with one hand and blocked his forehead with the other.
There is still some distance from the gate to the house.
…
The young man looked at the old man and grabbed his hand.
The expression is incomprehensible.
He didn't break free.
Instead, he let the old man pull it into the house.
…
The elegant old man was just doing a good deed.
I couldn't bear to see my child get wet in the rain.
did not think of……
But to his surprise, he discovered that this child had similar interests as him.
They became friends throughout the year.
…
This is really an unexpected surprise.
…
Every time the elegant old man thought of his acquaintance with Shangqing, he would inevitably feel a little emotional.
This is probably destiny.
If it hadn't been for the rain, he wouldn't have made friends with Shangqing.
Sometimes, the acquaintance between people is so magical.
…
When the elegant old man and Shangqing are together, they always have endless topics to discuss.
Therefore, he had little opportunity to ask the child about his own situation.
The time the kid comes to see him varies.
Very casual.
Just logically speaking, shouldn't a kid at his age be studying?
Why……
He once asked his children this question.
But the boy didn't give him an answer.
Obviously, the kid doesn't want to say more about his situation.
…
Shangqing said nothing.
The elegant old man could only give up.
Moreover, he believes in his little friend.
Such an outstanding child must have his own reasons.
He also vaguely sensed some mystery about this child.
This kid... didn't bother to hide it.
Instead, he shows his specialness openly and openly.
On the contrary, it made him wonder if he was making a fuss?
…
The elegant old man did not try to understand anything again.
Inexplicably, he had a hunch that if he persisted in wanting an answer, his little friend might not appear again.
He doesn't want to lose his little friend.
People are older.
I'm used to seeing separation.
But it is also the most difficult to leave.
…
The kid doesn’t say anything.
He didn't ask anything.
All his questions and worries about his children were put in his heart.
…
The child doesn't come to see him often.
This actually made him feel relieved.
How can a kid at his age have so much time to chat with an old man from the suburbs?
…
My little friend always comes alone.
Leave alone.
My little friend is like a person in a painting.
It seems that there are no traces of modern society in my little friend.
I can't see my child's connections with other people either.
Now that he sees that his little friend seems to be getting along well with the grandson of his old classmate, he feels quite relieved.
Children still need to have friends of similar age.
It is good for children to be calm and sensible.
But sometimes the innocence of some children is also good.
It is difficult for adults who have entered society to be innocent.
…
"Let's go."
The elegant old man greeted the two of them.
"Let's talk about anything at the dinner table."
"We talked while eating."
Although he eats without speaking, he sleeps without speaking.
But whatever.
He is the owner of this room.
He has the final say.
…
"Everyone sit down."
The elegant old man curled his lips.
"It's all home-cooked food."
It was made somewhat hastily.
Don’t know what kind of evaluation you will get?
He has no requirements for eating alone.
Eating is more like a routine task for him.
As long as it can fill your stomach.
But you can't be so careless when treating guests to meals.
He had worked hard to prepare.
He did his best to use the materials in the kitchen.
I hope to make a table of food that both children will like to eat.
It was rare that the dining table was mostly full.
The elegant old man smiled and narrowed his eyes.
…
"Taste them all."
When the elegant old man saw the two men picking up chopsticks, he couldn't help but understand.
"Shangqing has tried my handiwork several times."
Although every time I just "taste it lightly".
To this end, he is still trying to find Shangqing's favorite dishes.
But just now, he discovered Shangqing's favorite food - dim sum.
He couldn't help but mentally patted his head.
He is also slow to react.
A child.
No matter how mature and stable Shangqing is.
He is also a child.
Since they are children, there is almost no child who does not like to eat snacks.
Why didn't he think of preparing some candies and snacks for Shangqing?
His hospitality is not good.
…
"Although these are home-cooked dishes, I think my cooking skills are pretty good."
During the years when my wife was in poor health, he cooked all the meals.
His wife taught him a lot.
After his wife left, he continued to work hard to make the dishes his wife cooked for him taste better.
After all, I have been eating it my whole life.
His taste buds were used to the taste.
Practice makes perfect.
Even though he is not talented in cooking, with practice day by day, his cooking skills are slowly improving.
Occasionally, he would feel a little dazed when he accidentally tasted a taste that was somewhat similar to what he remembered.
Also a little happy.
That's too far.
The elegant old man brought his attention back to the present.
"certainly."
The elegant old man laughed.
"There is no comparison with your grandpa's skill in making snacks."
The dim sum made by my old classmate is at the professional level of a master.
He cooks...
That's just the standard of ordinary people.
…
Xiao Xiao put a piece of spring bamboo shoots into his mouth.
"delicious."
Xiao Xiao arched his eyebrows.
"Grandpa Ouyang's craftsmanship is very good."
…
"Yeah?"
Of course the elegant old man understood that this child must be a bit exaggerated.
But he took a closer look at the child's expression.
